Thank you, Big Ten Network
Advertisements [?]
in an effort to make a few people even more money, the Big Ten Network was formed. They have exclusive rights to broadcast Ohio State games (at least 3 this season) and if your cable or satellite provider doesn't buy in, you don't get to see the game.

In the past every OSU game was broadcast for anyone to see in the Columbus metro area. Time Warner refused to buy in - TW wants it on a sports tier because it's expensive and Big Ten wants it to have it shown on expanded cable. (I don't care for either organization.)

It's a small rant, but it's mine. :)
